update installation erases some user settings...

[timko]

Hi there,
I just updated to the latest version using the installer and user settings like email alerts are all removed. How can I restore them?
Also, how to adjust the size and color of the arrow that indicates an order placement? Is there any tool to print a different color on this order arrow for profit or loss?
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion!

Hello timko,

Thank you for your post.

If you previously created a backup that includes these settings, you can restore that backup to recover the lost settings. The steps to restore a backup file are listed in the Restoring a Backup Archive Help Guide.

Unfortunately, there isn't an option to change to the size of the arrows, but you can change the color. Right-click on a chart and select Data Series. You can change the Color for Executions Buy and Sell and click OK.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for any other NinjaTrader inquiries you may have.
